The Faroe Islands is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. It is located in the North Atlantic Ocean, between Iceland and Norway. The Faroe Islands have their own government and legislature, known as the Løgting, which is responsible for many domestic affairs, including education, healthcare, and transportation. However, Denmark is responsible for foreign affairs, defense, and monetary policy on behalf of the Faroe Islands.
